Great location which all the tour buses leave from. Lovely lovely staff. Decent menu. The room was very very expensive, but I appreciate that’s about scarcity and remoteness. I hope a big chunk of the funds go to staff and local community.

Loved the spacious room. Pool was freezing cold - maybe use the solar to heat it? Checking in/out very slow as arrivals and departures being dealt with at same time. Maybe look at plane arrivals and adjust check out times to avoid a clash.

Well worth a visit.
From the minute we were picked up at the airport to the time we left, the service was very good. The staff were friendly and professional. Food was good with generous portions. Facilities were good, there were never queues or waits. The room had everything we needed and more. We are seasoned travellers and this is one of the better hotels we have been to.

Really nice experience, especially appreciated soaking in the pool after a hot day of hiking. The staff was very friendly and helpful. Breakfast buffet had a large selections of food. Only down side was that we weren’t able to get a late check out. The porter watched our bags while we finished shopping so no problem.

6/10 Good

Visiting the area is amazing as are all activities related to the surrounds. The rooms at the hotel are large clean and beds comfy. There is a fridge and a kettle in the rooms which is very handy. However, the staff, especially at the front desk , are poorly trained making the check in and check out difficult and unpleasant. Check your bill when you leave as we were charged for a whole lot of stuff we didn’t have and it made the check out unpleasant and nearly made us late for the flight . The pool was broken for half of our visit and while we could use a small pool at a neighboring hotel it was not convenient and if we wanted to stay at the cheaper hotel and swim in that pool then e would have. Were promised twice a complimentary breakfast but this was not communicated properly to tye other staff especially at check out and it made it unpleasant. Also no concierge and so information at the front desk is limited and depends who is there. No tea or shower soap in the room and despite several requests it wasn’t replenished. A few annoyances esp when looking forward yo a special and relaxing trip and paying top dollar. Despite these issues , the area is amazing and spectacular , very pleased we visited

Loved this hotel, which was super convenient to Uluru National Park. It's a short walk to the Ayer's Rock Resort town center which has much more affordable food options.
